Legend of the Great Saint Chapter 125

Chapter 125
February 4, 2018
Over the years, Zhou Wen Bin invested over 2 million Silver in Jia Ping City, reducing the common taxes which then led to the bustling state of Jia Ping City today. As a county magistrate, he not only refused to take any bribes, but also raised the funds by himself and handled the state affairs so well that there was not even have a beggar in the streets of Jia Ping City.
Because of this, he was welcomed with such a strong reception the moment he came to the Pavilion. Of course, he did so not just because of his education by the saints and his ambition to become a good official for the people, but also because he had greater considerations as a Qi Refining practitioner.
However, under such governance, very few people would want to sell their daughters to this horrible establishment. For this brothel, there would thus be not enough fresh "supply". Therefore, the Pavilion would have to make do, even with unscrupulous means.
The Pavilion relied on its relationship with Zhuo Zhi Bo, and the background of the Pavilion in and of itself. Usually, the Pavilion never gave this magistrate much consideration, only giving perfunctory greetings in festivals. Wen Bin did indeed fear the Pavilion somewhat, and was not really willing to cause trouble there, usually disregarding the extremely infamous Pavilion. However, now that there was a person taking on the role of the vanguard, he would be willing to take the opportunity to do something beneficial for himself by exerting some pressure on the Pavilion. Of course, he would only be pressing down on them slightly. To remove the Pavilion in one swoop would be impossible.
Li Qing Shan knitted his eyebrows, long expecting the result deep down inside. If the Pavilion was so easy to destroy, they would not be able to remain in business till now. Even if he personally went down to the fishing village to check, it would be all for naught.
All in all, every man counts, whether he saved a person or killed a thief, at least someone was saved or punished. He did not believe that he could eradicate the Pavilion in a single moment as well. For these evil organisations, even if they could not be removed in a moment, they should still be punished cruelly, and quite clearly the impact of the punishment was still not enough even now.
Zhao Liang Qing’s face showed a creepily smug smile: "Lord Zhou, since there is nothing, please judge Li Qing Shan for his murder of the innocent as well as get him to release Fu Rong.”
The last sentence actually attracted a response from the whole Pavilion.
Li Qing Shan said: "This is my Eagle Wolf Guard business. This should not be a matter that an outsider like you should interrupt in. Those few security guards were blocking my Guard from handling our cases. Their deaths do not deserve pity. That old hag also directly attacked me, many people here witnessed it. Big brother Zhuo personally taught me what I should do in these situations, and I simply followed his teachings. "
Zhuo Zhi Bo squeezed out a sentence while baring his teeth: "Landlord Zhao, this is a trivial matter. You should leave it as it is." He has to endure, until he is able to identify the background of Li Qing Shan. One can only imagine, once he knows that Li Qing Shan and Gu Yan Ying have nothing between them, what kind of outburst will occur.
How could Li Qing Shan waste this golden opportunity? Of course he has to prank him while he can, taking advantage of him as much as possible.
Zhou Wen Bin then told Li Qingshan: "Firstly, release this woman!"
Li Qing Shan replied: "My lord, we cannot release here. This is our evidence. Also, this lowly one has something to complain about, and wishes to sue the Pavilion!”
Zhao Liang Qing had blue veins popping up on his forehead. Zhou Wenbin almost laughed out loud. You have already killed and caused chaos in the Pavilion and even the madam has been ridded off by you, yet you still have grievances you wish to use to sue the Pavilion!”
Lightly coughing twice, he suppressed his smile: "You want to sue the Pavilion on what account?"
Li Qing Shan lifted the hands of Fu Rong, "I sue the Pavilion for inferior counterfeit products, scamming prices, lying to the civilians and harming my feelings!”
Zhao Liang Qing had to endure the urge to shout. Li Qing Shan palm emitted a gust of True Qi, causing Fu Rong to immediately faint Upon losing consciousness, she could no longer cast her seduction techniques. Even ordinary people could see her true face. Li Qing Shan then lifted her up high.
"Everyone, please have a look, this is what the Queen Fu Rong looks like. Ask your own conscience and see if what I scolded just now was appropriate."
Almost everyone spontaneously rubbed their eyes, and became dumbfounded. Their hopes and dreams crushed. Was this really Fu Rong? Who was the woman in their dreams? What was the point of going bankrupt just to see get a glimpse of her? They questioned their own conscience and found themselves to be really stupid.
Many people immediately vomited. The gap in mental expectations was so strong that it was worse than eating a hundred flies. The dirty vomit flowed on the glamorous flooring of the Pavilion, as if this was its original appearance.
Some people could not believe it, possibly due to being infected by the seductive poison for too long, falling to their knees, crying: "This is impossible. This is not Fu Rong, this must be a fake! This must all be a conspiracy!”
Zhao Liang Qing was infuriated. He moved forward, exerting True Qi pressure causing the floor boards to crash. However, two more powerful atmospheres instantly locked onto him, one belonging to Zhuo Jibo, another belonging to Zhou Wenbin, two Qi Refining Practitioners.
No matter the reason or the purpose, they cannot just watch Zhao Liang Qing take action on Li Qing Shan. The two of them are symbols of the rules and discipline of Jia Ping City. They were also representatives of the authority of the court. Such rules and authority must not be threatened or disregarded. Li Qing Shan seemed arrogant and domineering, but he was actually acting steadily and with reason.
Li Qing Shan simply did not look at Zhao Liang Qing and only loudly said: "I spent a great price, just to see this clown in action. Wouldn’t you say that I am suffering from great injustice?" Then, he readily threw Fu Rong to Zhao Liang Qing: " You do not need to beg from me. Even if you gave them to me, I would not want these goods!”
After Fu Rong’s transformation, the looks from the surroundings changed. She instinctively casted her seduction techniques, but after suffering from great mental impact, unless the crowd had very weak wills, they would not be so easily seduced.
She cried hysterically: "What’s wrong with all of you? Don’t you all love me? I am Fu Rong!" She was seized by Zhao Liang Qing when he then ordered his subordinates: "Take her to her room.”
Of course, with the passing of time, the memories of many would gradually diminish. Her seduction technique may regain the high ground, but who knows how long this would take. This mental technique works on more than just the practitioner itself. It also relies on the environment, requiring the influence of sound and smell, as well as the power of word of mouth. Once everyone thinks you are an absolute beauty, you would become an absolute beauty, resulting in a greater result with half the work done.
Lee Qing Shan’s move was equal to letting the flower Fu Rong as well as the Pavilion’s years of delicate management become obliterated. It was no wonder that Zhao Liang Qing was so dismembered.
Zhou Wen Bin smiled, stroking his long beard: "This matter concerns one’s willingness to fight as well as one’s willingness to endure. This official cannot judge this easily." If he should adhere to Li Qing Shan’s words, then half the men in Jia Ping City would most likely begin to sue for their own respective grievances.
And facing Chen Xiu, he said: "This miss, please go with me to court. There will be a result for your case tomorrow!" There was already a runner heading overnight to the fishing village to investigate. Although there may be no results, but there should at least be an attempt to find out the truth.
Finally, he turned to Li Qing Shan and said: "You also have involvements with the case. You have to go to the county office tomorrow." There was obviously something he wanted to convey to Qing Shan, but in front of everyone, it was inconvenient to say.
Li Qing Shan said: "This one should be able to attend."
Chen Xiu bowed to thank him, but Li Qingshan said: "No need for thanks. I should be the one to say thank you." This caused Chen Xiu to widen her eyes in puzzlement, not knowing what he meant. However, to be able to get out of suffering was simply too great. Lord Zhou seemed to be as the rumours made him out to be, a great official. She was determined to reveal the dark dealings of the Pavilion, and rescue her fellow suffering sisters.
Zhou Wen Bin took his guards with him as well as Chen Xiu. Zhuo Zhi Bo also took the crowd of Eagle Wolf Guards away. Li Qing Shan followed behind them eagerly, and did not forget to say: "Thank you Commander Zhuo for taking action for this subordinate!"
The guests also dispersed. Many people distraught, or grieving, vowing never to return.
But such is life, when some people are not happy, some people would be happy. In Jia Ping City, many of the complaining housewives were surprised to find that their own men actually came back, no longer indulging in the prostitution. They were actually grateful to Li Qing Shan for smashing the Pavilion’s reputation. Men also found out that compared with Fu Rong, their own wives and concubines were actually first-class beauties. Thus, this incident resulted in much more harmonious couple relationships.
Li Qingshan mood was not bad. On the contrary, Zhao Liang Qing looked at the deserted Pavilion and roared in his heart: "I will make sure you suffer a fate worse than death."
Coincidentally, Li Qing Shan was thinking the same thing. If he could not eradicate this evil when meeting it, then their conflict would not end here. Even if you hate me, I also never forgot about you!
However, he could not reveal his original demon form to kill this Zhao Liang Qing, who had just formed a great enmity with him. If he died on the next day, it would only arouse suspicion from others. He would still like to leave this “valuable opportunity” to Zhuo Zhi Bo.
Hidden cards can only display their greatest power when hidden in the dark. Until he could not help it, he did not want to easily employ these measures. For now, it was more important to strengthen himself. As of now, he could fight even a 4th Level Qi Practitioner, and he believed that if he broke through to the second level, then he could fight this battle under public eyes.
Along the way, Zhuo Zhi Bo and the remaining guards were silent. their stares at Li Qing Shan becoming more and more antagonistic.
Li Qing Shan was also happy that his ears could remain clean(basically he’s saying that they talk nothing but bullshit). He returned back to the small building, and facing Little An, he said: "Thanks for your reminder. If not I might have fallen for their plot. How did you know I fell for the seduction?”
Little An used his finger tips to write on Li Qing Shan’s hands.
Turns out that he relied on his pair of Fiery Eyes to see beyond the thin illusions and saw Fu Rong’s true looks. For the Dao of the Beautiful Bones, its essence lied in breaking past all illusions and obstacles, to enable the heart to become like a Buddhist Bone Relic, to not be deceived by illusions. Disregarding that weak seduction technique, even the highest grade of illusions would not be able to evade his eyes.
The Dao of Beautiful Bones is far beyond the power of the Pavilion, and is far above most of the Cultivation techniques in this world. The remaining few techniques cannot be considered alongside it, but can only be said to be not too far off.
Li Qing Shan stayed in the storage for a whole afternoon, not just to see those secret martial arts techniques, but also for a rough understanding of the cultivation techniques of this world. These types of information books were commonly found on the first floor and did not require him to go to the second floor.
For the prim and proper Qi Practitioners from large traditional families, these things can only be considered common sense. But for him, this was like opening a door to a whole new world. Every increase in understanding was enlightening for him.
